Do You Know the Hypnotic Grip of Your Egos? - (1175)

Introduction

Knowing the hypnotic grip of our egos means comprehension of that ego. After knowing the hypnotic grip, the back bone of that ego has been more or less broken.


Comprehension

Comprehension is demonstrated in action or with facts.

While we are under the hypnotic grip of the ego we are in constant danger of identification, and demonstrating comprehension with facts is near impossible or too difficult.

The hypnotic grip tricks us into accepting, embracing and identifying with the ego. The hypnotic grip makes us buy into that ego. That is its unique role!

After the hypnotic grip leaves us we feel deceived and disappointed and angry at ourselves, because we said what we didn’t want to say and we did what we didn’t want to do. We went against all of our own best advice and principles.

The hypnotic grip makes things seem real and therefore compels us to identification, which is to fascinatingly think about the issue or desire and try to then get some answer or solution or conclusion.


Theseus, son of Poseidon, ventures into the maze of the subconscious to fulfill the quest of  slaying the Minotaur  - the myself.


One Hypnotic Grip

If for example there is a rift in a relationship, the hypnotic grip would have us believe and think “that it is broken and so it needs repairing”. They way we go about repairing it is using the ego of self-love, as one of self-love's function is precisely this. Then naturally our will ask the other party for an explanation of their behaviour towards us. We feel by virtue of this hypnotic grip to clarify, to defend and justify and make ourselves look innocent and the better party.


Hypnotic Grip is Logic

The most beguiling element for a human being is logic. The hypnotic grip is a reason or a conjunct of several reasons or a certain logic that is very powerful - very persuasive. A logic that we must obey, it is that powerful.

That is why Medusa has the snakes on her head indicating that the snakes ("I's") have their power, which
is the hypnotic power of Medusa in the mind, in logic! The Kundabuffer supplies the hypnotic power of the
ego, and this hypnotic power manifests in logic.

Find Exactly what the Hypnotic Grip Is

What about if we find exactly what the hypnotic grip is and we ‘question the hell out of it’ and then not believe in it!

I guarantee to you that that will be a ‘game changer’ for us and a ‘show stopper’ for the ego that we are working on!

End (1175).

Kundry from Parsifal Unveiled - (3948)

The character Kundry is very unusual, and has a mysterious role in Wagner's opera: Parsifal. As master Samael explains, Kundry represents the archetype of the feminine. That mysterious yet extraordinarily powerful force that can raise a man to the heights of realisation or sink him into the abyss of failure.  Kundry in the opera takes on a few different opposing roles, one where she is the temptress that seduced the king of the Holy Grail: King Amfortas giving Klingsor the opportunity to steal the Lance of Longinus and wound his side. She then helps the wounded king searching for balms to heal the wound in his side, then she is again the temptress that tries to seduce Parsifal the young knight who tries to redeem the lost lance. When Parsifal is victorious destroying the castle of Klingsor Kundry changes roles to become a servant of the holy grail and the knights of the order of the holy grail. These are all aspects of the powerful feminine force that is varied and has many differe...

What is the Kundabuffer or Kundartiguador? - (405)

Introduction Gurdjieff and Master Samael spoke much about the Kundabuffer organ and a lot of what Master Samael said is pretty clear. This post is just about going over some of what he said. In the Quinto Evangelio, Master Samael also revealed many more details which do not appear in his books. Note, the Qunito Evangelio is a two tome compilation of transcriptions of many recordings of informal talks that Master Samael had with his students. English and Spanish Terms There are these two terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer which refer to the same thing. Kundartiguador is Spanish and Kundabuffer is English. I believe it was Gurdjieff who first introduced these terms in his book “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson”. I believe “Beelzebub’s Tales to his Grandson” was not originally written in ether Spanish or English. So these terms Kundartiguador and Kundabuffer are translations where the word “Kunda” could not be translated and the ending "buffer" could b...

When We Speak Bad About Ourselves - Because of Self-Compassion - (2963)

Even Just Thinking Negative When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this.  In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves. Why It Does What It Does? Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fa...
